A teenager took a car after his 18th birthday party and led police on a chase at THREE times the speed limit through Bristol.

Dwayne White took the Vauxhall Corsa and tried to give police the slip when they spotted him, Bristol Crown Court heard.

But on what was his first driving outing the unlicensed, uninsured youth sped off at 90mph through 30mph limits, lost control and slammed into a wall and parked cars.

The high speed impact was so devastating the Corsa’s engine was thrown down the road.

When police approached the teenager he told them: “I saw police and I thought f*** it. How fast was I going, like 85?”

White, of Selkirk Road in Speedwell, pleaded guilty to dangerous driving, aggravated vehicle taking without a licence or insurance in relation to the incident, which happened late on October 8 last year.
